Fez & Region
Fez, the city of a thousand and one nights, the historical, spiritual and cultural capital of Morocco, is a must stop for culture, history and Hispano-Moorish architecture lovers.
Nestled in the hollow of a valley at the foot of the Middle Atlas Mountains, Fez, a prestigious focus of Muslim civilization and the cradle of Berber culture and Arabs of Andalusia, fascinates by its historical richness, its Hispano-Moorish architecture, its medieval Medina of Fes El-Bali, the beauty of its monuments and the splendor of its residences. Founded at the end of the 8th century by Idriss II, this millennial city is one of the oldest cities of Islam. Known in the past as the "Athens of Africa", Fez has been described and adored since its establishment by poets, historians and chroniclers from all walks of life, such as Ibn Khaldun, Leo the African … and has welcomed many scholars of Andalusia.
The intellectual influence of its Koranic university, its famous Quaraouiyne mosque, its buildings borrowed from Arab-Andalusian art make it, over time, the religious and cultural center of the Kingdom of Morocco.
Its monuments, its walls, the medieval decor of its narrow and winding streets, its mosques, palaces, fondouks and medersas (Koranic schools) which have emerged over twelve centuries of history, try to outdo one anothers ornaments: hand-Carved woodwork, chiselled bronzes, zelliges, moucharabiehs, carved columns and plaster. They bear testimony to the creative genius and know-how of its artists – craftsmen of great talent, coming from the East and Andalusia.
Classified as "Universal Heritage of Humanity" by Unesco since 1981, this "city museum" knew how to maintain its traditions over time (university, medersas, crafts, …) while becoming a modern tourist city and very active with its palaces, hotels, riads, guesthouses, golf courses, restaurants, hot spring resorts, entertainment and shows … It is today a must stop for lovers of history and Hispano-Moorish architecture.
The dynasties succeeded one another in Fez, leaving behind sumptuous palaces, mosques, gardens and medersas … This is how Fes quickly became the spiritual and cultural center of Morocco.
At the end of the seventh century, Idriss I, a descendant of the Prophet Mohammed (May peace and salvation be upon him), fleeing the hegemony of the Abbasids in Baghdad, took refuge with the Berbers of Central Morocco. Supported by numerous tribes who proclaimed him King of Morocco, he founded his capital on the right bank of Oued Al Jawahir (later Oued Fez) in 789 AD. At his death, his son Idriss II, completed his work on the left bank of the Wadi and decided in 809 to establish there the seat of the dynasty. This city became the first Islamic city in the country. A few years later, it welcomed several hundreds of political refugees from Andalusia, from Cordoba. This population was reinforced by the arrival of Jews from Andalusia and, seven years later, 300 families of craftsmen and traders from Kairouan (City of Tunis). Fes El Bali is centered on the famous mosque of Quaraouyine and many religious, cultural and architectural patrimonies. During the reign of the Almoravids, notably that of Youssef Ben Tachfine, Fez is experiencing an artistic and intellectual development marked by the construction in 1096 of the College of patients Almoravides, it is a medersa (koranic school) equipped with a library, and by the reopening of the Sahara road of gold. In the middle of the XIIth century, the Almohad Sultan, Abd el-Moumem, seized the city, "frequented by travelers from all countries".
Its inhabitants trade with Spain, the central Maghreb, the East and even some Christian countries. The city prospers. In 1250, Fez became the capital of the Merinid Empire for two centuries. The radiance of Fez reached its peak with the Merinid dynasty. The Merinid kings built a new city which was the seat of their power and named Al-Medina Al-Bayda (the white city). Another name "Fez Jdid" was given to it as opposed to "Fez El-Bali". They introduced the new official institution of medersa to disseminate the Malikite doctrine and formed a body of officials for justice, administration and the state. Finally, they enriched the city with new equipment: fondouks, fountains, baths, ovens, mills, bridges, etc.
Fez will know its golden age at the beginning of the fourteenth century. In the second half of the 15th century, Fez was affected by the unrest in the kingdom at the end of the Merinid dynasty. It is marked by the appearance of the new Beni Wattas dynasty in 1471, with the arrival of Muslims and Jews driven out of Spain in 1492 and, indirectly, with the arrival of Portuguese in the Atlantic ports. In 1666, Moulay Rachid re-established order, revived trade and chose Fez again as capital. After a long period of agitation in the first half of the 18th century, the city will regain its calm and prestige. Controlled by the nascent economic activity of Casablanca in the nineteenth century, Fez maintains its spiritual, intellectual and commercial influence.
The Idrissid Kingdom
After the death of Prophet Mohammed (may peace and salvation be upon him) in 632, interminable wars of succession will rhythm the history of Islam. Actor of this fratricidal war, Idriss ben Abdallah descendant of Fatima and Ali (daughter and son-in-law of Prophet Mohammed), takes up arms against the Abassids of Baghdad. In order to escape the bloody retaliation of the Caliph Haroun El Rachid, Idriss finds refuge in Morocco, in Oualili (Volubilis).
The Berber tribes of the region, recently Islamized, seduced by this pious and erudite man, designate him as their leader and Imam (788). This alliance is sealed by the marriage of Idriss with a Berber princess, Lalla Kenza. Haroun, was furious when acknowledging the creation of this independent kingdom, he poisoned Idriss I in 791. His posthumous son Idriss II is recognized as a new sheriff (title given to the descendants of Prophet Mohammed) in 809; The first Moroccan dynasty was born. Idriss II continues the work of his father. It increases his authority over new regions and endows its kingdom with an organized state. Fez is promoted capital and welcomes many immigrants from Cordoba and Kairouan who will make the city a high intellectual and spiritual place. Idriss II died in 828. He leaves ten sons who will question his work of unification.
Although weakened by incessant wars of succession, the Idrissids were proclaimed, at the beginning of the XIth century, caliphs of Cordoba. But the fragmentation of Spain led to their decadence and disappearance in 1055, the date of the capture of Sijilmassa by reformist conquerors, the Almoravids.
Wandering in the medina, even for the inhabitants of Fez, requires remembering the various successions of doors.
Fes El bali, (the medina) a city out of time
The medieval city founded in 809 by the Idrisides, "Fez El Bali" is the cradle of the Berber and Arab Andalusian culture and historical heart of the city and Morocco.

Fez City of art
Andalusian music is the result of a mingling between Arabic music, Afro Berber music and music practiced in the Iberian Peninsula when, in 711, during the reign of the Umayyads (661-750), Tarik Ibnu Ziad conquered the Iberian peninsula to celebrate the glory of Islam. This art later enriched the Spanish folklores and gave birth especially to flamenco. It is a lyrical and instrumental repertoire transmitted for centuries confirming the oral tradition in combination with the modal theory of tubu and a particular system of rhythmic refrains. It represents secular classical music. It is under the name of tarab al-Ala, or simply al-Ala, that the classical repertory of the Moroccan Nuba will be known until the diffusion of Orientalists works who adopt, terms such as "Andalusian-Moroccan music" "Arabic-Andalusian-Moroccan music", "Andalusian-Maghreb music" or "Hispano-Muslim music". Professor Mohammed El Fassi will take a decision on this issue by pointing out that the term "Andalusian music" is inadequate because it denies to the Moroccans their contribution to the the Nuba outbreak and development, whereas the present repertoire owes them much. It was therefore necessary to consecrate the ancient name al-Ala which the people used in opposition to the Sama. Thus the terms al-Ala, Tarab al-Ala, and Andalusi to emphasize the historical character of the genesis and development of the Andalusian style, fassiya (originally from Fez) or tetouanniyya (originating in Tetuan) are used only in familiar language, While scholarly writings and manuscripts refer to "Andalusian-Moroccan music", "Arab-Andalusian-Moroccan music", Tubu or Nuba.
The Moroccan Nuba: Nuba is a form of Arab-Andalusian music. It consists of a suite sung and instrumented with different poems interspersed with instrumental musical selections, free or measured. The ensemble is preceded by one or two instrumental introductions. The Nuba is sung in unison by the instrumentalists in heterophony that is to say by voices entanglement of. It juxtaposes a series of movements (five in Morocco) which are not necessarily interpreted in the same execution. Each of them adopts a particular rhythmic refrain and the general tendency is to go towards acceleration. The Nuba is based on the notion of fashion, which is called tab (character). It is the tab which ensures to the nuba his coherence and his identity. A single mode directs it, but secondary modes are grafted, discrete and in small numbers. There are never any sudden modulations. But, in reality, there are no standard interpretations of each Nuba. They vary according to schools and practitioners.
Berber songs and popular music: The Berbers are the first inhabitants of Morocco. They mainly inhabit the mountainous part of Morocco, Le Rif and the Atlas.
The Aïssawas: It is a brotherhood that is mainly found in the region of Fez and Meknes.
The brotherhood of Aïssawas was founded in the sixteenth century by Sidi Mohammed Ben Aïssa also called Sheikh El Kamel. It is said that when he died in 1526, upset, one of his disciples went into a trance and lacerated his clothes and his body. In this state he went so far as to devour alive a sheep and a goat.
This legend is at the origin of two fundamental practices of the brotherhood: the hadra (collective practice of trance) and the frissa peculiar to the Aïssawas.
The most important moussem of the Aïssawas is held annually in Meknes near the sanctuary of Sheikh Al Kamel, on the occasion of the celebration of Prophet Mohammed birthday (may prayer and peace be upon him). The Aïssawas also go to the houses upon families requests: the lila (night) is a festival animated by songs and the hadra, on the occasion of the celebration of a happy event, or to invoke the baraka of Sheik Al Kamel, or to solve thorny problems . In the "Hadra" the name of God (Allah) is invoked tirelessly in prayer until taking the body then the spirit, from this state flows the trance.
Sufi Songs:
The sufis developed two ceremonies combining music with their spiritual quest:
"The Samaa": (Hearing) is a ceremony made of prayer, music and dances that gives access to the state of grace and ecstasy. its music is mainly sung, the instrumental part being much less important. The concert takes place under the guidance of a spiritual master, the sheikh, and the solo singing is performed by the "quawal" being chosen for the beauty of his voice. The followers listen to this concert, sit down, and get progressively gained by trance. The instruments used are the drum and the flute. Over time, other instruments have been used. Essentially vocal, it is above all to sing the suras of the Koran and verses of poetry. The rhythm and the measure of these verses trigger trance.
"The dikr" (in plural ladkar) is a prayer that can be compared to a litany, the name of God is repeated unceasingly until it takes the body and then the spirit, thus leading to a state of trance and annihilation of consciousness. The practice of dikr has two main aspects: the solitary one and the collective one, the latter being linked to music and dance. Its practice is different from that of samaa in so far as the whole assembly is taken by a state of trance. The dikr is also run by a spiritual master, the sheikh to whom the singers are added. The prayers are sung and repeated in chorus by the assembly. They are accompanied very quickly by a movement of the bust from front to back, this movement introduces an ascent in the song until bringing the state of trance. The trance here is more communicative. The dikr also plays an important role in all stages of agricultural life: plowing, harvesting, peeling, but also wool work. The repetitive invocation of the name of God aims to prevent harmful effects on crops such as hail, frost, too strong wind. The songs, as well sung by men as by women, are a mixture of Arabic and Berber. They meet in sittings in which the verses are rehearsed, the number of which is fixed by tradition.
The fassi craft sector:
Crafts have always been the city's main economic activity. It is intimately linked to the history of the city. Crafts are governed by corporations made up of workers in the same trade. It operates according to a well-defined hierarchy which regulates the craftsman training and ensures the products quality. Artisans practicing the same activity, are grouped in Fez by neighborhoods, designated by the name of the specialty: dabbaghines (tanners), nejjarrines (carpenters) … The artisanal activities that still make Fez famous are jewelry, treen, Pottery and ceramics, leather goods, binding, brassware and embroidery. Fez is also famous for carpet weaving and zellige making. Moreover, traditional crafts have helped make of Fez a center of artistic influence, confirmed by the inscription of the Idrissid site as a universal heritage recognized by UNESCO.
Fez ceramics: It evokes the cultural history of Fez. Shaped by skilled hands of master craftsmen, ceramics in Fez is endowed with several functionalities: Jar, pot and jug for storing solid or liquid food products, plate and bowl for displaying dishes, oil lamp for lighting and perfume burners for fragrances. Whether blue or polychromatic, the ceramic of Fez with its decorative motifs is a real pleasure for the eyes. In addition to the exhibits in museums and handicraft centers, the private collection containing 120 enamelled ceramic pieces from the XVIIIth century to the 20th century, belonging to Omar Benjelloun foundation, is worth the trip.

Now in new version v0.34 there are two new commands "up" and "down" to move component layers respectively. But if you want to move "up" object which is covered by other components, how can you select it for moving up? The only way to select currently is to click on it - but you only click on those which are already on the top...
The situation when the "under" component is sticking out from under another component is probably meaningless in most cases (unless it is a "hot touch spot").
Whence, once again I repeat my recommendation to make a window with list of all components in currently active page. This window should be logically located between "page" window and "attributes" window on the right side.
Then it will be easy to select any component in this window regardless whether it is covered (on the bottom layer) or it is on the top and then to use these up-down commands... I expected this feature to appear in this new version.
I am now reviewing all of the Feature Requests, this will take some time, patience please.
Hey Vlad,
Up/Dn component ordering - effects rendering order.
The lower the component id, rendered first and therefore on a "lower layer"
In the Attribute pane, there is a dropdown above the list of attributes and values.
This allows you to select any component included in the page.
Your point is made several times, I will be able to represent it.
Component pane as opposed to drop down - carried forward
More layering support - carried forward.
Zoom feature vs Screen scrolling - carried forward.

Community Action
Although only a short distance geographically from the urban hub of Cairns, the Daintree region could be worlds away. One of the few remaining true wilderness areas to be found on Australia's east coast, the area's high biodiversity values are internationally renowned and have been recognised in the World Heritage listing of the landscape's rainforests and surrounding coastal reefs. One of the least modified landscapes in the Wet Tropics, community groups in the Daintree have a strong focus on protecting and enhancing the natural ecosystems and local wildlife found there, through planning, research and on ground actions.

For 10 years, they went to Florida each winter. In 2016, the trip almost didn't happen – John was suddenly facing surgery for prostate cancer. But his physician gave him the okay to travel and when he returned, he found himself on a path to proton therapy that would make a mark on his life in unexpected ways. John is the first to admit that many men don't exactly enjoy the prostate screening experience, but for many years, John would get checked and hear the same thing: slightly enlarged prostate, but soft and overall, safe. Then, one year his primary care physician recommended he see a urologist. The urologist told him that his PSA number – a number commonly used to gauge prostate health – was concerning and he scheduled John for a biopsy. When the biopsy came back, his doctor told him that the cancer looked aggressive and while he would be fine to take his trip to Florida, afterward he should set a date for surgery. In May 2016, John had surgery at Northwestern Medicine Delnor Hospital, where Michael A. Rashid, MD, a urologist with Illinois Urological Institute, removed his prostate by performing a robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy. This type of procedure was conducted specifically to treat high grade, locally advanced prostate cancer. After the prostatectomy, however, his doctor identified cancer cells extending beyond John's prostate, and additional treatment was necessary. For treatment, it was a combination of hormones and radiation where John received a shot of leuprolide, a chemical that reduces the testosterone that stimulates the prostate cancer cells. Dr. Rashid knew that in order to effectively treat John's tumor, radiation therapy would be the way to go. To ensure John was getting the best treatment for his condition, Dr. Rashid followed Northwestern Medicine's multi-disciplinary approach by referring John to Dr. Hartsell for postoperative radiation treatment. William F. Hartsell, MD is the medical director of the Northwestern Medicine Chicago Proton Center in Warrenville, Illinois, and, in short order, John was invited to the center to speak with the care team about his cancer and history. Dr. Hartsell recommended treatment with proton therapy. Unlike traditional radiotherapy, proton therapy pinpoints tumors with precise doses of radiation. The advanced precision that proton therapy offers reduces the risk of side effects and damage to surrounding healthy tissues such as the bladder and rectum. The Chicago Proton Center team formulated a plan for John that would include 39 proton therapy treatments, every day except weekends, for eight weeks. Not only did the extensive collaboration of John's physicians give him confidence, the caring and knowledgeable teams at the Chicago Proton Center gave him peace of mind during his next phases of treatment. They provided not just the utmost care – guiding him through the treatment process from check-in and changing rooms through treatment and check-ups –they also became close confidants. "We would talk but they never stopped their functions. The work they did, the effort they put into it, was just outstanding," says John. "I don't know how else to say it. They were as concerned with me as they would have been with someone in their own family." In the waiting room, John experienced a similar sense of welcome and camaraderie. Everyone is going through something and the patients bonded in different ways. They would do crosswords together or work on puzzles. They would chat about their days and lives. John had an 8:15 a.m. time slot but found himself getting to the center around 7 a.m. just to socialize before his treatment time. John graduated from the Chicago Proton Center in January 2017 – and it is a graduation, complete with diplomas and speeches. He received a card signed by everyone who interacted with him. This winter, John and his wife didn't make it to Florida – instead, they went to Hawaii. Thanks to the multidisciplinary approach of the physicians from Delnor Hospital and the Chicago Proton Center, his life is entirely changed now. And with the collaboration and care he received from his physicians, how could it not be? Interested in connecting more to the Northwestern Medicine community?

Wow! It's been a LONG and BUSY week! I had my first day of school last Monday and spent my week with 22 sweet, new students. We are all still settling into our new building and getting used to everything that is new. It has been sad to watch old Mableton being torn down right before our eyes. I looked out one day last week and saw the bright green walls of my old classroom… the next day it was gone. Very bittersweet. Our new building is beautiful and we are truly lucky to have it… Our students deserve only the best! I am working on putting the finishing touches on my new classroom and will post some pictures of it soon!
On another note… Teacher friends, look who I got to meet this weekend! THE SISTERS! They brought the Daily 5/Cafe Workshop to Atlanta and I have been SO EXCITED about going to this since February! I learned so much from them this weekend and can't wait to post about how the implementation of Daily 5/Cafe works out in my classroom! Hope you all have a great week!

I have slugs in my kitchen. I don't just want to kill them - I want to be rid of them. How do I do this? They climb up into my silverware drawer, my cupboard where I keep my pots and pans and now they are bold enough to be on my back door. I live in a very moist area due to the fact that I am near the water, a lot of mold and moisture. How do get rid of these disgusting creatures?
Add your voice! Click below to answer. ThriftyFun is powered by your wisdom!
I can't think of any way to get rid of them without killing them. I do know a GREAT way that they can leave you alone, and they won't feel any pain. Set out a pie dish of beer, they'll drink to their hearts delight and die drunk. As for getting rid of them? Don't know, all I know is ewww, I hope you find something, I thought ants in the kitchen were strange!
lay out some salt like around the area u dont want them. maybe if u know were they are coming from u could lay salt there. it kills them and keeps them out i find.
Try pouring salt where you think they may be entering your home. They will not cross it, as it sucks the moisture from their body.
I've heard that slugs carry some of the worst soil born viruses, bacteria, and fungus. I'd put out LOTS of plates of beer, and since salt it is so cheap.
I'd turn over every rock, pot, slab, stepping stone, piece of wood, leaf pile, then look in every single cranny for their houses and babies, THEN , when found, pour a one inch wide ring around their house and YOUR house, to be certain they are kept at bay. I'd make a monthly ritual of this since you live by the water from which they come the most.
Also, I'd sprinkle salt around every single pipe
opening, on the floor of every cabinet/pantry/closet,
AND sprinkle it into the tracks of all doorways, and
keep doing it until the numbers are so small that
they dare not cross the lines. Remember that many
plants don't like salt, so go OUTSIDE the plants/shrubs/tree drip lines with the salt. These things eat plants of MANY kinds, as well, so you'll be doing great warfare by your efforts, the medical reasons being the more important, obviously. Don't let your children play with them. Wash/bleach all dishes and silverware a.s.a.p. and place them in bags temporarily, until you get these things under control! They're nasty, believe me. God be with you. : )
I had this problem when I was replacing some wood rot in my kitchen.
You'll need to reduce moisture conditions (check pipes for leaks and excessive moisture too) as much as possible and invest in a couple of tubes of silicon caulking to seal up any points of entry they might have and replacing anything that has rot in it
The problem with spreading beer out is that it will kill some slugs, you risk attracting roaches and ants in large numbers. Take some salt and mix it in water and lightly spray it in areas where you find the slugs most often and routinely clean with stuff that has bleach in it.
after reading all the other comments a feel a bit better known am not the only one got slugs in my kitchen thank god they are horrible am going to try salt tonight fingers cossed a wont wake up to find more trails
I have slugs every were in my kitchen sun room everywhere. I don't know how 2 get the out of my house I tried 2 put salt every were but still it doesn't work.
I have them in my kitchen driving me nuts.
You could find them when they come out at night, catch them and relocate them to a forest/park
Put copper tape across the bottom of your doors, outside.They will NOT cross the copper. Hardware stores or Lowes will have some. Since it is a tape, just peel and stick.
I can't tell were they come from what ever I try!
My mission is on.
First attempt-Day one: I am traking the beast by attaching(as gently as possible)a piece of string to it and with piece of white paper at the other end of the string, will see tomorow if I can locate them!
To the guy not wanting to kill them I'll bag up everyone I find and send them to you. Kill every nasty slimy slug u see there good for nothing but leaving marks on ur carpet salt works gonna talk to a dude that sprays for bugs for a living will know more tomorrow. But kill them don't be dumb and relocate them like there a injured bald eagle or something like that.
I've tried salt everywhere but seemed like a losing battle. I find slugs all over the ground floor of my house. I know use a bleach spray (either flash, parazone, domestos). I have even used sterilising fluid around the home.
I have had them too, and it is a shock, especially the large leopard variety! I have concluded they are getting in from under my floor somewhere. I tried salt at door, but my mum said salt burns them and is quite cruel. A better way and simple and works is to crush up old egg shell and leave it in a thin line at your front door they don't cross it. As for getting in my kitchen I picked it with a trowel and put in an envelope (all I could find) then went outside to find another 5 of the big boys.
How do I get rid of slugs in the house

I just watched a funny South Park episode about World of Warcraft. In it, the boys need to kill a countless amount of (virtual) boars in order to become strong enough to save the World (of Warcraft).
That got me to thinking about what Linux and OSS needs a lot of right now. We've got super smart people, and great software. But to pull it all together, it'll require killing a lot of boars.
That means there needs to be better documentation (even if only consolidating wisdom that's scattered across forums), more polish, and other generally "un-fun" stuff. I've done a lot of work with printers. Considering I don't personally own a printer, that is killing a boar. Nevertheless, the printer languages, performance, and whatnot still need to be documented.
Essentially, to bring Linux to the big time, we're all going to have to kill some boars.

Troian Bellisario's New Movie 'Still A Rose' Out on iTunes Next Week!
Juliet (Troian Bellisario) kisses her Romeo (Tinuke Oyefule) in this still from Still A Rose.
A play on "Romeo & Juliet", the new film centers on two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona, where we lay our scene. Through the modern lens of equality, Romeo and Juliet change on screen. Employing Shakespeare and Cinema, two great artistic languages come together to re-introduce a timeless tale of young love and tragedy to a brand new audience.
Refocusing literature's most iconic young lovers, 'Still A Rose' weaves through couplings of mixed-race and same-gender within the arc of the famous balcony scene (Act II, Scene II) from 'Romeo and Juliet'. Boldly jarring and beautifully seamless, Romeo (Brandon Crowder, Oyefule) and Juliet (Bellisario, Will Branske) transform Shakespeare's celebrated words to give them new life and new love. Because Love, by any other name, is still Love.
Still a Rose will be out on iTunes on July 12th!

Artist donates fitting memorial for Ben Breedlove at Dell Children's
By Nadine Bonewitz, KXAN.com
New angel wing sculpture at Dell Children's Medical Center in memory of Ben Breedlove
By Nicole Villalpando, Austin360
The sculpture is a gift by the artist and his wife Elizabeth Bryan Jacobs … The couple loved Ben's story and wanted to do something in his memory. They reached out to Ben's parents, Deanne and Shawn Breedlove, about donating a sculpture and having it at Dell Children's, where Ben was often a patient and where Deanne Breedlove still volunteers on the family advisory council.
The sculpture is fitting of Ben, Deanne Breedlove says. "He told us he believed and felt that an angel came to him and comforted him, and he had great faith. It's a very good symbol for Ben's faith and thankfulness," she says. Click here to read the full version.

By: Joe Braue –
For years, vertical industry marketers seeking to drive thought leadership in a hot sub-segment of their markets have worked with B2B media companies to create microsites on the topic on media company sites. These microsites usually involved the single sponsorship of a jump page or small sites that included media company content and vendor content on the hot subject.
Now, with almost all content being Tweeted or posted to Facebook or LinkedIn, social media curation platforms can be used by editors to curate a wide range of content about specific hot topics and arrange it on a website. And vertical industry marketers can sponsor the hubs to drive thought leadership, visibility, as well as expand social media reach in these hot segments.
Here at NewBay Plus, our leading brands have been producing social media hubs for more than two years covering major industry association shows (TWICE Magazine for CES, Tech & Learning for ISTE, and our AV Group for InfoComm) as well as for other industry happenings (for example, Broadcasting & Cable Magazine for the 2016 Upfronts season, from March to May of this year).
But the biggest use of social media curation platforms may be as the successor to the B2B microsite. Check out NDIcentral (see: http://www.tvtechnology.com/NDIcentral/), a new social media hub that partners TVTechnology, the Creative Planet Network and our client, NewTek. TVT and CPN editors are curating social media posts about the NDI (Network Device Technology) a video over IP standard being driven by NewTek and allied companies. NDIcentral was launched at the IBC Show in Amsterdam (see the press release: http://www.newbaymedia.com/ndicentral-launches-at-ibc/). NewTek is the sponsor of the site, and TVT and CPN are looking to sign up additional companies who are part of the NDI initiative to participate. To post to the site, use the hashtag: #NDIcentral.
There are three key innovations for the social media hub vs. the traditional microsite:
- First is the fact that the social media hub can reside on the media company website, vendor website, and any other partner or alliance website. For vendors and their partners, that can be a huge infusion of content about a hot topic to show the industry that you are the leader in the space.
- Second, using the curation tool, there is a much wider amount of content available for the site via the entire social media universe, and posts are pulled into the site in real time via Twitter or another social feed.
- Finally, the hub can actually drive the social outreach for the vendor in the hot segment.
If this sounds interesting, email me at email@example.com and I can walk you through the concept and discuss how we at NewBay Plus could put it to use for your next major vertical marketing push.

"From the Fit-it and Forget-it Diabetic Cookbook. This recipe was submitted by Amy Marlene Jensen of Fountain, Colorado. I made a few changes and will share them with you: used a 12 oz. bottle of beer; instead of allspice I uses some cinnamon and nutmeg; used a cup of frozen pepper strips (red, yellow and green); and I added cooked pasta just to heat it in the last 20 minutes before serving. I thickened the sauce a bit too with cornstarch in water."

The study identified that people are less likely to consume an energy-dense snack food when its label outlines the exercise it would take to work off its calorie content. University of Canterbury honours marketing student Michelle Boulton studied 220 people and said including exercise on the label increased the likelihood of higher feelings of guilt after consumption.

Get Your Ford Mariner Hybrid Online
Ford has started selling its second hybrid, the Mercury Mariner (which is a more luxurious cousin of the Ford Escape), on July 11th. It is available almost exclusively online at MarinerHybrid.com, but in very small quantities for the 2006 model year. To give some perspective, 2,000 Mariner hybrids will be made the first year while Toyota/Lexus sold 2,869 Highlander hybrids and 2,605 RX400h in the month of June alone (stats here). Production should grow to 4,000 annually. "The Mercury Mariner Hybrid [...] delivers [an] estimated fuel economy of 33 mpg/city and 29 mpg highway (some 7% less than the slightly lighter Escape). It also meets the stringent California Advanced Technology Partial Zero Emissions (AT-PZEV) Standard. The Mariner Hybrid can run in electric-only mode up to 25 miles per hour [vs. around 40 mph for the Prius]." Another thing worth noting: The Sierra Club will help Ford to promote the new hybrid.
